Antiques & Museums & Victoria And Albert And Me!
My favourite was the simple oak furniture by Voysey, you must choose your own personal objects - what a wonderful dilemma! Not too crowded on a Monday so I could get near enough to the cabinets for a good view of the Art Nouveau jewellery - exquisite.
My appetite was wetted for more gold and diamonds so onward and up the marble staircase to the splendour of the necklaces, tiaras and costumes on display from the period of grand stately living.
Time's flying by and I keep getting distracted by passing things that are just so exciting that I must stop and look. The skilled craftsmanship in the making of each individual item is what fascinates and thrills me. The hands of a Georgian clock, the intricate fretwork of a metal grille, the workmanship of the everyday key - breathtaking!
